OBS started crashing after the last update

I use the Streamlabs plugin, the Advanced Scene Switcher and the Stream Elements. Sometimes it glitches the screen when I chance the "scene collection" and I had to close it down to fix the issue.
But now, after I installed the last OBS update, the software crashed whenever I try to check for updates, check for integrity or even shut down the sofware.
It gives me an alert like the one attached and it won't close. I have to shut it down from task manager to get rid of it.
Any suggestions?

Normally you always have to verify that the third party plugins you're using are updated and compatible with the OBS version you are using or want to install. Never update OBS until you're sure all of this is check.
Most probably one or more of this plugins are causing the crash. You can re-install the previous OBS version where it was working or completely remove the plugins causing the crash. In the crash report (you didn't attached it here) should show which one is responsible.
 
I've been having an issue with OBS Studio crashing when it was being shut down with the same message while using Streamlabs. I removed the sl_browser plugin service from Menu Tools-plugin manager and the issue is gone. When I added the sl_browser from Streamlabs back in the crashes began again. This is a Streamlabs Issue. The Streamlabs folks have not released a fix for the issue.
